loracsAll presents are present, accounted for and wrapped.
All food is purchased and in the fridge waiting for it's moment.
I shot the Gilly Greeting card yesterday and just need to print them all out.
I'm having the hardest time getting mailing labels out of MSWorks, so I put them into Excel. Now I'm having the hardest time getting labels out of the mail merge into Word. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've done it with the wizard, I've done it without the wizard. I have 104 addresses, so it should only need 4 pages (30 labels per page), but it is setting it up to print 104 pages! First page, label 1 - 30 okay. Second page takes label #2, puts it in the first spot and then fills in with 3- 31. Third page, puts label #3 in the first spot and then fills in with 4 - 32 etc. I sent the file to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dbubley at work today and she put into Access and set up the labels report. Sent it back to me and I was very surprised to find I did not have Access on my home computer. I thought for sure I did, but it's not in my MS folder or found in a search. I guess I have a less than "professional" version of the MS Suite. So I still need to figure this out pretty soon or I'll hand write the damn things! I think I remember how pen and paper works. ;-)
Need to write the xmas letter to send out to some of our family/friends.
Tomorrow is for food making so on xmas day I can do the merry/eating making. I'll start the sauce for the lasagna in the morning so it can cook. I'm serving lasagna, Italian sausage (cooked in the sauce), a ham, potatoes au gratin, veggie soup (with a chicken stock) in the crockpot, green beans, green salad, various chips and dips, cheeses, crackers, couple types of olives, marinated artichokes, roasted red peppers, pepperocines plustracytreefrog is bringing flan and a crab salad.
For dessert, I also have a pumpkin pie, crumble top apple pie, a few cookies, very decadent chocolate truffles and rum balls. I suspect no one will leave hungry! Speaking of which, I just realized I'm starving. All I've had today was some soup, salad and a Ruben sandwich for "brunch". Wonder if I can find anything to eat?
